[maemo-developers] How to to manually package Qt Mobility?

[From: Felipe Crochik]

Sascha,

I have compiled the “contacts” module and it is quite simple using
scratchbox. I distribute with my application a “custom” contacts backend (I
don’t distribute the contacts module just the backend)

 

Not sure if I am saying the obvious but:

 

I think would be pretty simple to just compile the modules you need from
source code and include with your application but I would suggest you should
not try to install to the official “/usr/lib” to avoid conflicts with the
“official packages”. You can compile it with a different prefix so they get
installed to a different folder and then you can compile your application
using the “custom” version.

Hi,

 

I just got a reply from Ovi Support. This is what they suggest:

 

"You can always try to build the Qt Mobility source with your app. The
source package can be downloaded at
http://repository.maemo.org/pool/fremantle/free/q/qt-mobility/qt-mobility_1.
0.2-maemo1.tar.gz; or you can use apt-get source libqtm-bearer to acquire.

I'm also working on possible other solutions. Packaging a deb file into
another looks like having some trouble currently. I'll let you know if I've
made any progress. Sorry for the inconvenience."

 

So it this a good idea? Is it feasible?

 

Cheers,

 

Sascha
